the technology is outdated. the technology lazily can be referred to as analog technology. it predates the internet, as the mayor suggested, it predates smartphones. 80% of the activity that occurs around a call center is smartphone based not landline based, though we have a system to finance our call centers that predates this new technology. we're overly relying on burdening landlines and as a consequence we have not been able to modernize our system and we've been disproportionately burdening those holding on to that technology, tend to be people on fixed income and seniors. we've been fortunate. there's been efforts over the last few years to update our system that have fallen short. we were successful this year in pushing through our budget and ultimately in this what we call trailer bill to get to the point where today we can formally announce that by the end of this month we have identified the vendors and we will be moving forward with updating not only the state lay of the 911 system, moving from analog to digital but our four major regions that define this state.
